A common genetic target for environmental and heritable influences on aggressiveness in Drosophila [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Environmental and genetic factors can modulate aggressiveness, but the biological mechanisms underlying their influence are largely unknown. Social experience with conspecifics suppresses aggressiveness in both vertebrate and invertebrate species ...

Short-Term Evolutionary Features and Circadian Clock-Modulated Gene Expression Analysis of Piezo, nanchung, and αTubulin at 67C in a Romanian Population of Drosophila suzukii

open access: yesInsects
Drosophila suzukii is a successful invasive insect species responsible for agricultural losses. The key to its prowess is the ability to swiftly adapt to new environments through various genetic mechanisms, including fast accommodation of mutations and ...

Adult Neurogenesis in Drosophila

open access: yesCell Reports, 2013
Adult neurogenesis has been linked to several cognitive functions and neurological disorders. Description of adult neurogenesis in a model organism like Drosophila could facilitate the genetic study of normal and abnormal neurogenesis in the adult brain.

Glucose‐Responsive PAGR1‐Regulated Skeletal Muscle Gene Program Controls Systemic Glucose Homeostasis and Hepatic Metabolism

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The study reveals that PAXIP1‐associated glutamate‐rich protein 1 (PAGR1), a glucose‐responsive regulator in skeletal muscle, modulates systemic glucose homeostasis and hepatic metabolism. Muscle‐specific PAGR1 deletion enhances insulin signaling, promotes glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) translocation, and protects against high‐fat‐diet‐induced insulin ...

A novel octopamine receptor with preferential expression in Drosophila mushroom bodies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Octopamine is a neuromodulator that mediates diverse physiological processes in invertebrates. In some insects, such as honeybees and fruit flies, octopamine has been shown to be a major stimulator of adenylyl cyclase and to function in associative ...

A role for kinesin heavy chain in controlling vesicle transport into dendrites in Drosophila. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The unique architecture of neurons requires the establishment and maintenance of polarity, which relies in part on microtubule-based transport to deliver essential cargo into dendrites.

PRC1‐Mediated H2Aub Loop Formation and Function in Arabidopsis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In the Arabidopsis genome, H2Aub and H3K27me3 marks do not always co‐localize, and some regions are marked exclusively by H2Aub. By using Capture‐Hi‐C, it is found that H2Aub loops are preferentially established between two H2Aub enriched regions.

A model of toxic neuropathy in Drosophila reveals a role for MORN4 in promoting axonal degeneration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Axonal degeneration is a molecular self-destruction cascade initiated following traumatic, toxic, and metabolic insults. Its mechanism underlies a number of disorders including hereditary and diabetic neuropathies and the neurotoxic side effects of ...
